Cezar Ferreira Accused Of Taking A Dive After 13 Second TKO Loss At PFL 9

Cezar Ferreira suffered an apparent injury and a TKO loss just 13 seconds into his light-heavyweight play-off fight against Marthin Hamlet.

The Brazilian opened up with a body kick and immediately fell to the floor after throwing it, clutching his other leg.

Hamlet swarmed with ground strikes to score the TKO victory.

The Norwegian prospect initially celebrated his win before later admitting he had a lack of pride in the method of his victory.

Earlier in the evening, Chris Camozzi picked up a lopsided decision win over Cory Hendricks. The UFC veteran took to social media to reveal Ferreira was injured heading into his fight with Hamlet and claim the Brazilian took a dive.

“Huh. That’s a dive by Cezar,” Camozzi wrote on Twitter. “I saw him at the weigh ins, black and purple leg. My coaches saw it too. He showed up for a show paycheck @PFLMMA can’t believe they cleared him to fight”
